The canadian govt. surplus auctions always has some good deals. There are a few quads and a nice boat up for auction right now. Even a dozen leghold traps and a couple damascuis knives located in Edmonton. Several vehicles for good prices too.

60% off at Chicken on The Way today in celebration of their 60th Anniversary. Yes, the line ups are long. We got ours early, it was a wait, but not as bad as it is getting now.

There's an Agent Provocateur 5 piece Lingerie Set with Stockings too! Not sure how that became Gov't surplus, maybe our PM is ready to man up and decided to get rid of his gear.

He’s not going to man up. Just emptying his closet, time for a new fall wardrobe.

Power Pro 8 Slick is on sale for half price at the Sherwood Park Canadian Tire. 15-40 lb test in brown and green. Not sure if it’s only this store or chain wide.

For those who want to load up on produce for canning, freezing, etc, today is the fall harvest sale at Heritage Park in Calgary. It’s put on by the Calgary Produce Marketing Association and the prices are absurdly low. Park admission fees apply so that has to be factored in on ones budget, for those with annual memberships it’s a nice bonus. Bring a cart or dolly because 6 return trips to the parking lot loaded with 30lbs each trip tends to suck. Say hi if you see me! We’ll have an aluminum dolly that converts to a flat cart with a bunch of rectangular milk crates on it.

Just updating the deals we got at the fall harvest sale at Heritage Park, a 50lb bag of red potatoes was $20, a flat of 10 whole pineapples was $8, a bag of 3 romaine lettuce was $1, a flat of live butter lettuce was $4 for a flat of 12, bags of BC prune plums were $2 each, 3 x 3lb bags of carrots for $5, entire flats of tomatoes on the vine from RedHat for $10, a flat of strawberries (8 tubs) for $10, corn on the cob @ 25 cents each (can't recall the price for a whole sack). There's more but you get the picture. Some people leaving there had such vast quantities they must have been restaurateurs (10 flats of tomatoes, etc)

The sale continues tomorrow... We made two trips to our vehicle with a dolly that converts to a flat cart. I think the first trip back had over 120lbs (50lbs of potatoes making up a good part of that). 2nd trip was perhaps only 50lbs.

Bring a cart and be ready to make all manner of preserves! We usually split some of the haul with family as some items in large quantities would go to waste otherwise as you can't freeze lettuce.

The place was hectic but no vendors were lined up. The nice part is that sale proceeds support local charities so its a win/win.

Keep an eye on the Alberta Gov't surplus site. They've been auctioning off a lot of quads lately (but of course none at this moment) and some go for pretty good deals.

If you use Canada post a lot and have an account, they are offering free shipping every Tuesday in Oct and 25% off international shipping. If you buy and sell a fair amount it is worth getting an account as you can ship expedited parcel post for the same price as the much slower regular parcel post. You also get $100 insurance free that way.
